Biography2010Israel Houghton is an American Christian music singer, songwriter, producer and worship leader. He has won six Grammy Awards; three for Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album and one for Best Traditional Gospel Album for Alive In South Africa.

Israel Houghton became involved full-time in worship ministry in 1989. From the start, he looked to overcome cultural and denominational barriers. With this idea as a centerpiece, Israel formed his New Breed Ministries in 1995 with his then wife, Meleasa, and a group of world-class musicians and singers.

His website: Since launching into full-time worship ministry in 1989, Israel has delivered a message that demolishes cultural and denominational barriers across this nation, and around the world. He has worked with ministries such as Fred Hammond and RFC, the Young Messiah Tour, TBN, Crystal Lewis, Anointed, CeCe Winans, Donnie McClurkin, Yolanda Adams, Cindy Cruse-Ratcliff at Lakewood Church, as well as Champions for Christ—a high impact ministry to college and professional athletes with Pastor Greg Ball.

Israel and his beautiful wife, Meleasa, founded New Breed Ministries in 1995, a dynamic worship ministry comprised of world-class musicians and singers who actively minister in their respective churches, while traveling extensively on a weekly basis. New Breed’s passion is to blur the lines of church factions, bringing all people together in unity through worship. Their renowned, diverse sound is effectively captured on the 2001 release of Hosanna Integrity’s “New Season” album, as well as the 2002 release of “Lakewood Live-We Speak to Nations.”

In addition to his intense touring and producing schedule, Israel leads worship regularly at Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas, Pastor Joel Osteen, and is currently finishing an Israel and New Breed-Integrity Gospel/Sony release produced by Tommy Sims due in October. He is also pleased to announce the release of his latest album, “Live from Another Level”—a double CD capturing a live worship experience in Atlanta, Georgia last fall. I come from a cross-cultural background, which is just a nice way of saying my father was black and my mother is white. My mother became pregnant at the age of 17 in Waterloo, Iowa. You can imagine how this is shaping up. She was given the choice of a back-alley abortion or being disowned by her family. Thank God she choose the latter. Ultimately, she was disowned, abandoned by my biological father, and ended up in San Diego, California.

Picture this. It was 1971 and my mother was 8 months pregnant, all alone, thousands of miles from home, and forced to enter reality unprepared. Pretty bleak. One day while walking down the street, a lady pulled up in her Volkswagen Bug, got out, and respectfully yet boldly, began to share the Gospel with her.

Words of life and hope began to overtake the words of rejection and abandonment she had grown accustomed to. There on a street corner, she ended up on her knees and cried out to God – committing her life to Jesus Christ. The lady gave her a Bible and that’s how I got my name. My mother started reading at page one and well, you know – you have a Bible, my name is on every page!

I’m often asked by skeptics, why I’m as passionate about worshiping God as I am. The answer is simple for me. In this age of disposable relationships, I could have easily become a statistic and at best, a distant memory of a youthful mistake. Instead, a Sovereign God rescued my mother and me and gave us hope, a future, and a testimony of the providence of God. The very least I can do is enter His gates with fresh thanksgiving, His courts with a passionate praise, and eventually bow before His throne in intimate worship.

As far as leading worship goes (which is my passion and calling), I now realize that there have been demands put on me from every part of my experience since day one – culturally, emotionally, musically, and more. So things tend to sound cross-cultural, cross-denominational, and cross-generational. I like to call it, “The Sound of New Breed Worship.”1
